EWF logo and festival dates are in the lower right corner” Video One: Katerina Bryant Welcome to Home as Archive. My name is Katerina and I will be a host and artist this evening. To begin, I would like to acknowledge the first nations and Traditional Owners of the land we are broadcasting from – I am currently on Kaurna land, where I live and write. I pay my respects to Elders past and present, and, as this is an online recording whose reach is far, to the Elders of the lands this recording might reach. For this event, we will be discussing home, spaces and histories. This is part of the wonderful EWF and is presented in collaboration with Essex Book Festival & Metal Culture, Southend. Tonight, we will be witnessing work by artists working between so-called Australia and Essex, England. They will be sharing artefacts from the archives of their personal histories. I anticipate there will be an intimacy tonight as we will be peering into these artists’ homes. Where we live and, who and what we share those spaces with, is intimate and vulnerable. In some ways the past year has allowed us to peer into each other’s homes over Zoom, but in others it has separated us from sharing space with people we cherish. I’d love to frame tonight as not only a look into these artist’s homes and lives but the creation of our own archive – capturing this moment through place and objects.

  • A Comparative Study of Bolivian Indigenous and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples’ Resistance
    Battles for Indigenous self-determination in the neoliberal period: a comparative study of Bolivian Indigenous and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’ resistance. Rachel Lorraine Evans A thesis submitted for the Masters of Research degree at Sydney University in 2019 Faculty of Social Sciences 1 Abstract ___________________________________________ This comparative study will analyse Bolivia’s revolutionary process and Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander resistance movements to assess the Indigenous empowerment model. It will seek to ascertain whether an exchange would benefit both struggles. Bolivian President Evo Morales, an Indigenous Aymara, is widely recognised as leading a fight against neoliberalism, with a ‘cultural, democratic revolution’. The country, with 42% of people identifying as Indigenous (Fontana 2013, para 3), appears to be formalising Indigenous land rights through a ‘plurinational constitution’ (Burbach, Fox, Fuentes, 2013, p. 80), within an anti-capitalist rubric. Other revolutionary governments in the region — Venezuela, Ecuador, Nicaragua, El Salvador and Cuba — are challenging neoliberalism, but Bolivia seems to be uniquely placed to showcase elements within an Indigenous self-determination model. In comparison, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities in Australia are a minority population of 2.8% (Australian Bureau of Statistics, 2017, para 1), living within a settler colonial state, having survived British invasion of their lands. They have waged heroic battles for land rights and won 33% of their land back from the settler state (Altman, 2014, para 8). However, showing the strength of the colonial project, the majority of land to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders is in remote and arid lands not suitable for agricultural production.

  • Australasian Music at Home and Abroad
    43RD ANNUAL CONFERENCE OF THE AUSTRALASIAN MUSICOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF AUSTRALIA MUSIC AT HOSTED BY THE MELBOURNE CONSERVATORIUM HOME AND OF MUSIC CELEBRATING ITS 125TH ANNIVERSARY ABROAD 3 – 5 December 2020 0 WELCOME 2020 marks 125 years since the establishment of the Conservatorium of Music at the University of Melbourne. We are delighted that the MSA has allowed us to link our celebration of this event with the 43rd MSA national conference, in conjunction with the 19th Symposium on Indigenous Music and Dance. Our initial projected grand celebrations have necessarily had to be curtailed because of COVID and sadly we are not able to physically showcase the splendour of our new building to musicologists and ethnomusicologists across the country and indeed the world. But this current online conference is still a very special event for us, which truly marks our history (a history which is directly addressed by our two wonderful keynotes) and more generally contextualises our history by its theme, Australasian Music Making: At Home and Abroad. We have an exciting programme with outstanding scholars from across Australia, New Zealand and the world, addressing many different aspects of our theme, and beyond. I am sure that wherever you are watching you will thoroughly enjoy the conference. – Kerry Murphy, Convenor I am delighted to welcome you to the 43rd National Conference of the Musicological Society of Australia, held in conjunction with the 19th Symposium on Indigenous Music and Dance. I am also thrilled that the aforementioned events offer us all the opportunity to celebrate the 125 years since the founding of the Conservatorium of Music at the University of Melbourne.
